10 #KotlinTips to help you write better code

1. Use the?let?function to check nullable properties and avoid complex branching logic. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

2. Use the?Elvis operator?(?:) to provide default values for nullable properties. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

3. Use the?require?or?check?functions for early exit conditions. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

4. Use single-expression functions to write more concise code. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

5. Use the apply function to initialize an object and call its methods. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

6. Use the forEach function to iterate over a list which is concise and safe, instead of using for loops. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

7. Use the when expression to make your code more concise and readable, instead of using the if-else statement. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

8. Use the joinToString function to join elements of a collection with a separator, instead of using the StringBuilder class. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

9. Use the?runCatching?function to execute a block of code and catch any exceptions. For example:

No alt text provided for this image

10. Use extension properties to add custom getters and setters to existing classes. For example:
